Churchill has been voted as the greatest Briton ever in online polls, based on his role in leading British resistance to the Nazis in World War Two. However, he has also received criticism for his attitudes to race and his resistance to giving India independence.

This programme puts the focus back on the man – his character, actions and words, and will help you form your own opinion.
